Okay, Alltel and Verizon are the same right, well my phone broke, and my friend gave me hers, and its an alltel phone, Can i use it? If so how do i get it turned on with my same number? when i got a new phone last time i just called this number and put in the esn number and my number, (forgot the number i called) and then i just called *228 and turned it on, is that a way to do it, or is there another way?
